15.5.15: Erasmus Where and Why


I want to go to Ireland for Erasmus because Ireland has very nice countryside, beer, and whiskey. I
think it would be very pretty to spend time.  I also think that Irish people might be like me.


Priroda do Ang: L


Environment               zivotni prostredi

The country(side)             venkov

Landscape                   krajina

I would really like to visit Georgia (the country), because when I saw thein performance at
Encounter, I was absolutely amazed even if it lasted three hours. There wasn’t an empty seat, but
the truth is that they worked on that for more than _a__ year, so the Erasmus program would not be
enough.
